Street Carnival - Drags from Banda de Ipanemal
Banda de Ipanema is one of the highlights of Rio de Janeiro's
Street Carnival festivities. It was founded in the sixties, and for some reason since the 80's it started to attract hordes of drag queens from all over the world. They come in the most colorful costumes, from glamourous to bizarre. The results are here for you to enjoy! Watch all themed webclips, or chose your favorites from the playlist!
